gorgeous life

"...I want
 to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable and beautiful and afraid of nothing,
 as though I had wings."
- mary oliver
 
  read entire poem here.

 reflecting in the mountains with family.
giggly kids, running around in superhero costumes.
pausing only to drink honey-milk and plan a hike.
good food. good beverages. fire burning.
sunrise. sunset. taking my breath away
as the glowy-tipped shenandoah mountains give me permission to relax.
to breathe.
to embrace so much.
and to let so much go.
